[Vm-dev] Why "context top" points to "tempVector" and not to variable value?

[Denis Kudriashov]

Hi.

Try to debug following script:

| t |
[ t := 'test' ] value.
^ t halt


You will see in debugger #('test') as stack top value. Why it is not 'test'?
I understand that hidden arrays used for variables which are used in
closures. But why "context top" in that cases points to vector instead of
variable value?

Best regards,
Denis
